I am studying Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) in Android mobile phone. From reading, I found there are 2 APIs in TEE (isolated OS):
Internal API: a programming and services API for Trusted Application (TA) in TEE, cannot be called by… Continue reading Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) internal API vs. external (client) API
The newest Android phones use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chipset with its TrustZone/TEE. The Android OS makes sure that a stolen phone, in its assembled form, is not usable.
Does Trustzone further prevent the CPU from bein… Continue reading Anti-Theft Mobile CPU
I am a newbie learning all about isolation and separation for securing applications and system software. In this regard, I was reading up on ARM TEE and how it is available on most Android phones to offer better security for … Continue reading Trusted Execution Environment Vs. Hypervisor or VMs: How are they related?
main question is in the title. Some clarification though:
When you factory reset your encrypted phone, the old device encryption key (DEK a) gets deleted and a new encryption key (DEK b) is being generated, which is used to … Continue reading Is it possible decrypt Android 8 encryption, if the device encryption key is gone (but with a known PIN and KEK)?
An answer (Data deleted after encryption – recoverable?) came to conclusions, which triggered some questions for me.
